St. Mary and the life of Modesty

Is my life in Cosmos or in Chaos ?

Is my life Glorifying and Thanking God?

adorn = kosmeo'

modest = kosmios

"in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing, but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works."

1 Timothy 2:9-10

orderly, properly

Cosmos

Modesty in the Bible

adornment = kosmos

order, arrangement, fitting

"Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God"

1 Peter 3:3-4

"If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work. A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach"

1 Timothy 3:1-2

Is my life in Cosmos or in Chaos ?

Glorification

St. Mary as the Icon of Modesty

Thanksgiving

"because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen."

Romans 1:21-25

Fr. Alexander Schmemann called man

a “doxological eucharistic being” –

a praising and thanking creature.
